I see so many videos with people saying "I support you" and none saying "I'm going to take action." Everyone is dawdling, nobody is doing anything

5 million people are doing something, your comment is shitting on their effort.

It's incredible that millions of people showed up and pretty much none of them feel for Donald Trump's trap that would have, to the MAGA Republicans, justified martial law and the suspension of liberties.

I'm pretty solidly convinced the protest was a good thing and that we won this battle.

And 2-3 million were doing something a few months ago with the earlier protests. With any luck this trajectory continues

They are saying the effort was toothless, no need to take it so personal.
